Hi there. I've got some problems with my card and thought I'll post here and see if anyone could maybe help me :) The problem I'm having is, when playing games my computer sometimes start rebooting and giving me bluescreens. Can't really tell what message I get since it disappears within a sec. I've tried installing new drivers etc but the problem stays. Kinda nooby when it comes to stuff like this so I'm stuck right now :(
I hope someone has some solutions :) Anywayz, this is what I'm on:

Asus P5N32-E
Intel Core 2 Duo E6300
OCZ High Performance 2GB
Chieftec CFT-620A-12S 620W
Gainward BLISS GeForce 8800GTS 640MB

Thanks / sone

you forgot to mentions that removing your display driver to install modified ones like NGO causes you to loose your mobo drivers?

To get the BSOD or error message to show you need to disable automatic reboots @ Control panel->System->Advanced and on that page click settings for reboot & repair (roughly translated as I'm not on english XP) then untick automatic reboot. This way you can see what error it gives and post it here or Google for solutions.

are you overclocking anything, cpu maybe?? if yes then maybe its not stable enough to run games, but stable enough to do everything eles
